The Official 2020 Everything But The Kitchen Sink Post

I'm honoured. I would have asked what you're wearing if it didn't sound so creepy.

A pair of blue jeans leggings and a red/pink cable knit sweater ;)

 

[Squiddy]

Because @Sensei is here, I actually got dressed in real clothes. Something I don't do unless I have a doctors appointment. I never leave, so I live in my pjs.

I'm still in my pajamas

Sounds sweet and comfortable. I'm very comfy clothes myself. I just noticed that they're all in black, something I often wear.

I'm ctb soon, just finishing up getting everything in order to make life easier for my family. Currently on my final journey to the place I'll ctb
Hope you get your med change soon and aren't too inconvenienced until then

Thank you all so much for your kindness earlier. I should have mentioned I'm not actually ctb today, just making the journey. I had my date set for tomorrow but I need a few more days to sort everything out for my family as I don't want them to have to worry about anything. I'm also going skydiving next week, it's the last thing on my bucket list I haven't ticked off yet as I've never had the courage I'll definitely post a goodbye thread when the time comes as I'll want some company.

How's everyone's day going?

 

[Jean4]

Did you ever feel 'off!' Nothing specific, but you just don't feel right?

I'm tired, but I can't sleep. Feeling stir crazy and can't sit still. Brain fog and can't get anything done. Want to do things but feel lazy.

Just finished a game of Ticket to Ride with my mom. She beat me for the first time in ages :(

You scared me good. I feel a bit more at ease knowing it's not gonna be a three in one at least.

Almost every single day of my life.

Usually I am stable in my depression. This is different. I was bipolar. Switched to major depression. I think I am switching back.

I think if I was bipolar I wouldn't have made it this long. Hopefully you start to feel better soon even if only a little.

So it looks like my mom picked out a dog at another shelter and we're getting another dog :( I really wanted the brown one, but oh well

I don't believe anything until it's home.

Reminds me of how I had multiple pets(birds mostly and a few fish), before my sister brought home a cat. And then a few years later another cat. I never had a choice in the matter and after she stopped taking care of them I did instead. Even though one has passed I still love them both dearly so hopefully it will work out for you as well and you'll love that other dog.

Good morning everyone,

I hope everyone's doing well today.

Cats are the most adorable things ever. Unfortunately, my mom hates cats and dogs. We had guinea pigs at one point, but then she made us give them away

We're going to bring the dog home

I may have posted something that seemed... as a link-like for it

When I was much, much younger (2nd grade) I wanted to be a writer--a teacher said it was stupid and get my head out of the clouds. When older, everyone came to me to talk and ask my opinion on what they should do with their problems--for I was their go-to person for things. Classmates, friends, best friends, ex (both when wasn't an ex, and when was an ex). Went to college and figured I'd become a psychologist because 'might as well' everyone expected it. They thought I was a theatre major because of all the hours I had it that lol.

One of my classes made a comment that 'theatre and psychologists (and basically writers) were basically broken/abused as children, and entered those fields for therapy for themselves' almost everyone in the class looked around, then almost everyong just sunk down realizing they outed themselves.

This is one of the reasons I studied psychology. Before I quit college, this is what I was studying. I had a major in psychology and a minor in history. Sadly, thanks to the brain fog, I've forgotten much of what I learned. But I studied psychology hoping that:

1) I could learn what was wrong with me and perhaps fix myself so that I could function properly in society, and
2) I could help others who had gone through similar experiences to mine.

Unfortunately, there had just been so much crap piled on me by the time I was 21 that I just couldn't do it anymore. If my husband hadn't come along, I most likely would've been dead before I turned 25.

Psychology was probably my favorite subject in college

I was actually on track to be in a masters program for counseling psych when I wasn't even 21 yet. I intentionally sabotaged my entrance so I could fail without feeling guilty.

Basically because of like your #1--but it was a I couldn't help myself, so what right did I have to try and help others.
